A plankton extract. The maker links it to skin stress resilience; independent data are limited. Well tolerated.
Topical application
BLimited evidence. One RCT or several controlled studies with limitations.
An active extract. Well tolerated; independent data limited.
Artemia extract (INCI: Artemia Extract) comes from a tiny planktonic crustacean. It contributes peptides and nucleotides to a formula, and makers position it as an ingredient that would help skin cope better with environmental stress. Here the wording matters. The interest rests mainly on supplier data, while independent confirmation of a real effect on skin resilience stays limited. So we treat it as a supporting active with a modest evidence base, not as a proven performer. No promises, no blanket dismissal, just thin data. In topical use the passage into circulation is minimal, so it can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding without any foreseeable risk. It is well tolerated: low irritation and allergy potential, fine for sensitive skin. Reactions are rare and concentrate in people already sensitised to marine derivatives.
